We’re hoping the team wins the toss and chooses to bat first.

In red-ball cricket, the pitches at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium may seem to favor spin, but in white-ball formats, especially T20s, they become a paradise for batters. The last IPL season showcased how big scores are achievable here. While pace bowlers might get some early assistance, it tends to fade once the powerplay ends.

It’s expected to be a hot day in Hyderabad on matchday, with temperatures reaching the mid-to-high 30s during the game. There will be some cloud coverage, but only a very small chance of light rain. Winds will be moderate, and humidity levels will remain low.
